RE: 10K what mods?

or how bout a used 03 cobra

RE: 10K what mods?
 

well i really like my car and i like the stealthyness of it. so i want it to look really stock but be real mean under the hood!!

RE: 10K what mods?
 

pi swap and forced induction of some sort. and a bigass helmet.

RE: 10K what mods?
 

Full bolt-ons, with a pi head, cam, and intake swap, with a supercharger. That would put you close to 10k.

i have been reading i would like to do a TT set up but i haven`t seen any 96-98 TT GT's.

a man after my own heart! good move on the stock looking car with some vroom vroom under the hood. my car looks completely stock, but when it's on, you can tell it isn't. so if you want it to sound stock even while on, get that PI swap and get some juice for it. that'll put you at about 2500 for the PI stuff and a nitrous kit with all the safety goodies and a flip chip with a nitrous tune. that leaves 7500 to get yourself full boltons. acer's 98 GT put down like 285RWHP or something with a basically untuned 98 GT with a PI headswap and full boltons (minus cams) and 4.30s. it was a mean lil ****. he could have probably gotten 300 out of it if he had it properly tuned.

i`m looking for around 500hp thats why i`m talking to you guys about it. would i be better off to build a motor and leave in N/A for awhile of what.

sell your car and go for a 96-98 cobra, but if thats not the route you are wanting to go, I would go full bolt ons, nitrous, suspension, gears, wider rims/tires, then start saving for a built tranny/motor.
